Abilities & Strategy
Overview
Immerseus begins with 100 Corruption, displayed as a visible power bar, and the objective of the encounter is to cleanse him by reducing his Corruption level to 0. Each time Immerseus is reduced to zero health, he Splits into a mix of dark Sha Puddles and watery Contaminated Puddles. Following each Split, Immerseus reforms with reduced health and Corruption depending on how successful the raid was in dealing with the two types of Puddles. This cycle repeats until Immerseus's Corruption reaches 10 or lower, at which point he is cleansed.

Tears of the Vale
As a water elemental, Immerseus attacks players directly.
Sha Bolt
Swirl
Immerseus causes torrents of Sha-corrupted water to burst from beneath the cracks in the ground. Players that come into contact with the tainted waters will suffer Shadow damage and be knocked away.
Corrosive Blast
Immerseus inflicts Shadow damage in a cone aimed at his primary target, increasing Shadow damage taken by 300% for 45 sec. Stacks.
Seeping Sha
Coming into contact with the Seeping Sha that surrounds Immerseus inflicts Shadow damage and knocks players back.
Swelling Corruption
Immerseus surges with power, gaining stacks of Swelling Corruption proportional to his current Corruption level. This power lashes out at players who strike Immerseus with single target abilities, coalescing into a Congealed Sha creature as well as inflicting Sha Corruption upon the attacker, which deals at least Shadow damage every 1 sec for 6 sec, increasing in damage rapidly with each additional stack.
Split
Upon reaching zero health, Immerseus becomes unstable and bursts into a shower of Sha Puddles and Contaminated Puddles, which will attempt to reform in the pool at the center of the chamber. For each Sha Puddle killed and each Contaminated Puddle healed to full, Immerseus's Corruption is reduced by one.
Sha Puddle
When destablized, Immerseus forms one Sha Puddle for every four units of Corruption he has. Destroying a Sha Puddle before it merges back into the central pool will remove one unit of Corruption.
Sha Residue
This effect stacks.
Contaminated Puddle
When destablized, Immerseus forms one Contaminated Puddle for every four units of Corruption that have previously been removed. Healing a Contaminated Puddle to full health before it merges back into the central pool will cause it to become Purified, and remove one unit of Corruption upon reaching Immerseus.
Congealing
The speed of the Contaminated Puddle wanes as it increases in health.
Purified Residue
This effect stacks.
Erupting Sha
When any Puddle reaches Immerseus, it triggers an eruption, inflicting Shadow damage to all players for a Sha or Contaminated Puddle, or Frost damage for a Purified Puddle.
Sha Pool
The Sha Pool grows over time, inflicting at least Shadow damage over 1 sec to enemies who touch it, stacking and increasing rapidly in damage proportional to the number of stacks. Touching the Sha Pool causes it to shrink, whereas it will expand whenever any Puddle reaches it.
Seeping Sha
Coming into contact with the Seeping Sha that surrounds Immerseus inflicts Shadow damage and knocks players back.
